Willoughby was fired after sending a “string of inappropriate messages” to football finance agent Catalina Kim.
“Chelsea Football Club confirms that it has terminated Commercial Director Damian Willoughby’s employment with immediate effect,” the club said in a statement.
“Evidence of inappropriate messages sent by Mr. Willoughby prior to his appointment as manager of Chelsea FC earlier this month was recently provided to and investigated by the Club.” While they were sent prior to his employment at the Club, such behavior contradicts the workplace environment and corporate culture that the Club’s new ownership is establishing.
“The Club’s owners are working tirelessly to establish and achieve the highest standards both on and off the field, and they are determined to establish and nurture a culture of transparency, accountability, inclusivity, diversity, and opportunity.” The Club is dedicated to fostering an environment that embodies these values.”
